Thermo Scientific EASY Spray Source ES081 Nano-ESI Ion Source for LC-MS Integration

The Thermo Scientific EASY Spray Source ES081 is a precision nano-electrospray ionization (nano-ESI) source designed for seamless integration with Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) systems, widely used in molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing applications. Featuring an integrated, temperature-controlled column-emitter design, this unit enables tool-free, finger-tight connections with zero-dead-volume fittings, which are critical for maintaining narrow chromatographic peaks and maximizing separation efficiency.

Key technical specifications include:

• Integrated temperature-controlled column-emitter for stable and reproducible nano-ESI performance essential in biopharmaceutical production pipelines.
• Zero-dead-volume fittings to minimize sample dispersion and maintain high chromatographic resolution, beneficial for synthetic biology and gene editing workflows.
• Tool-free assembly allowing easy single-connection setup, simplifying maintenance and reducing downtime in busy laboratory environments.
• High stability and durability supporting long-term experiments and multisite collaborations common in advanced biotechnology research.
• Lightweight (18.0 kg) with compact shipping dimensions, suitable for benchtop use in clinical diagnostics and biomedical engineering labs.

This source enhances LC-MS sensitivity and reproducibility, making it an essential accessory for researchers conducting proteomics, metabolomics, and molecular cloning workflows. Note: The unit is sold as the source only; additional components for a full LC-MS setup are required. Manufactured in 2013 in Malaysia, it delivers reliable performance with minor cosmetic wear.

This nano-ESI source is widely adopted in synthetic biology research and critical in biomanufacturing pipelines, supporting high-precision quantitative analysis required in modern life science laboratories.
